Abstract

Blood and Body Fluid Exposures (BFFEs) involve a complex sequence of events combining technical, human and organizational factors. Performing root cause analysis (RCA) of these events is promoted to improve safety. We conducted a RCA of a BBFE in a radiology unit using a recently developed French method called Orion.

This method seems quasi-intuitive and easier to conduct than previously described methods because it relies on a detailed chronology

  • It allows the implementation of BBFEs preventive measures and promotes collaborative teamwork
